[Mapserver-users] Problem with Itasca test suite (problem solved)

[Lin Jianfong]

I recompiled mapserv, and it turned out ./configure failed to locate the 
library for PNG support earlier on my box which is located in /usr/local as 
prefix and a couple other things which is sort of odd because the 
documentation mentioned /usr/local as default prefix ./configure will look 
at. This time I also compiled GD statically along with it. I'm not sure 
which of the two things I did above made this work but now itasca suite 
worked perfectly for me, all images in PNG format, and using absolute paths 
for everything.

Doing ./mapserv -v returns :

MapServer version 3.6.6 OUTPUT=PNG OUTPUT=JPEG OUTPUT=WBMP SUPPORTS=PROJ 
SUPPORTS=WMS_SERVER SUPPORTS=WMS_CLIENT INPUT=TIFF INPUT=EPPL7 INPUT=JPEG 
INPUT=GDAL INPUT=SHAPEFILE

This is what it's supposed to look like I think, the string returned was way 
shorter earlier.

Hooray for now I guess :)
